No. Mad - like the multitudes of protestant Rapture theories.

The Catholic Church is 2,000 years old.

She doesn't preach Rapture theories from the 1800's.

[1]How dare you call God's word, "Mad".

[2]The catholics are 1.400 years old, Remember They weren't formed until at leat 300--600 years later.

[3]I know the catholics don't teach the pre-trib rapture, You don't teach anything in the Bible.

[4]God inspired His prophets to teach the rapture, And it is recorded in the Bible, So how could it have started in the 1800's??.

All you have proved is, You don't know the Bible or your church history.

I didn't call God's word "Mad", I called the multiple of Rapture theories developed since 1830 insane.

Repentant Christians, confirmed in Baptism and the Holy Spirit, do not need scare tactics and should not use "Rapture" theories of the End Times to increase attendance.

I'm talking about protestant interpretation of the Book of Revelation.

How many end of the world dates will the various protestantisms see come and go?

It doesn't take your modern day "prophets" to figure out what happens when governments allow kooks to develop nukes.

The only date that any of us need to care about is our own personal day of judgement. Which happens upon the day of our death.

You keep getting protestants mixed up with born again Christians.

You are mixing the end of the world timers with the TRUE Christian people who believe the pre-trib rapture.

Those who know the Bible, Know that no one will know when Jesus is coming back. So how can one put a date on it??.
Which proves the pre-trib rapture, Because if the Church was to go through the tribulation, We will know exactly how long we'll have.
And Christians don't put dates on the end of the world.

It just proves that you don't know the Bible or the Christians beliefs.


Where does the Bible say judgment happends at death.
At death, The Christians go straight to heaven,
2 Cor 5: 1--8. Phil 1: 21--23.
And the catholics go straight to hell until judgment day.

The Christians don't have a judgment day for their sins, Jesus has already taken our judgment.

catholics will be raised up from hell and judged for their sins, Then cast into the lack of fire.

Understandable, your wanting distance from the numberous forms of protestantisms.

Interesting really, as well.

Is it just the 'catholics' you send to hell?

Are there people in the various forms of protestantisms whom you also send to hell?

All of them?

Some are saved? And if so, which ones?

Only Pentecostalism is saved?

Surely thou, what about your Oneness Penecostals, are they saved?

And those who don't oppose homosexual acts, do you send those to hell?

Right, because 'catholics' don't use deep enough water.

I remember your long dissertation concerning that point.

Very catholic statement.

You're off in the weeds there.

And Christians don't put dates on the end of the world.

Oh, plenty have and do, falling for the Rapture trap theories. You aren't aware of the lastest?

It just proves that you don't know the Bible or the Christians beliefs.

What?

You mean only the Pentecostals, or maybe some Pentecostals?


And the catholics go straight to hell until judgment day.

So... you do believe that there are 2 judgements. How very catholic an idea. Do you only realize the errors in your theology when other people point them out to you?

The Christians don't have a judgment day for their sins, Jesus has already taken our judgment.

That's very protestant thinking, and yet... you say you're different than those protestantisms.

catholics will be raised up from hell and judged for their sins, Then cast into the lack of fire.

I've heard your pronouncement mulitple times.

Chastity and homosexuality

2357 Homosexuality refers to relations between men or between women who experience an exclusive or predominant sexual attraction toward persons of the same sex.

It has taken a great variety of forms through the centuries and in different cultures. Its psychological genesis remains largely unexplained.

Basing itself on Sacred Scripture, which presents homosexual acts as acts of grave depravity,141 tradition has always declared that "homosexual acts are intrinsically disordered."142

They are contrary to the natural law. They close the sexual act to the gift of life. They do not proceed from a genuine affective and sexual complementarity. Under no circumstances can they be approved.

2358 The number of men and women who have deep-seated homosexual tendencies is not negligible.

This inclination, which is objectively disordered, constitutes for most of them a trial.

They must be accepted with respect, compassion, and sensitivity.

Every sign of unjust discrimination in their regard should be avoided.

These persons are called to fulfill God's will in their lives and, if they are Christians, to unite to the sacrifice of the Lord's Cross the difficulties they may encounter from their condition.

2359 Homosexual persons are called to chastity.

By the virtues of self-mastery that teach them inner freedom, at times by the support of disinterested friendship, by prayer and sacramental grace, they can and should gradually and resolutely approach Christian perfection.

[1]Did Jesus, Or did He not say no one will know when He is coming??.

TRUE Christians never put a date on Jesus coming, Because we don't know.

REMEMBER,
You believe the pope's porkies and the catholic con-men rather than the Bible.

[2]There are no errors in my theology, Because I teach what the Bible says, And there is no errors in God's word...GET YOUR FACTS RIGHT.

Yet, what distinguishes Pentecostals from other conservative, evangelical groups is their intense belief in the ongoing work of the Holy Spirit.

They never “gave up” on what scripture refers to as the “gifts of the Spirit” such as healing, prophecy, speaking in tongues and interpreting tongues.

Moreover, although they strongly affirm the Bible as the inerrant word of God, they also are open to the ongoing revelatory work of the Spirit.

Thus, back in the 1970's in our Pentecostal community, when it became clear that the Spirit had anointed women to be preachers and to lead the church, we went with it despite the scriptural injunctions against women speaking in church or holding positions of leadership.

Those passages were interpreted “in their context” – meaning that they held for Timothy’s community in Ephesus at that particular time, place and situation in the first century.
